I agree with everything you said, but don't tell anyone I said that

I don't expect anything good from the new guy.
IMHO he's just a cover story for keeping things the same.

"This Person Is A Crazy Racist": New NPR CEO Exposed As Woke Activist
Last week, veteran NPR reporter Uri Berliner - a longtime 'Subaru driving' lefty who was raised by a 'lesbian peace activist mother' - wrote a scathing report accusing the network of overwhelming bias.
Introspection was the last thing on NPR's mind, however, as new CEO Katherine Maher chastised Berliner as "profoundly disrespectful, hateful, and demeaning" to his colleagues for calling out political bias.
As Jonathan Turley notes:
In a memo Friday, Maher told the staff that Berliner attacked not only “the quality of our editorial process and the integrity of our journalists” but “our people on the basis of who we are.”
...
Maher’s response was hardly surprising. She was a controversial hire at NPR. Many had hoped that NPR would seek a CEO who could steer the company away from its partisan and activistic trend. The prospect could have brought moderates and conservatives back into NPR’s listening audience. Maher, however, was part of that trend.
This should come as no surprise given Maher's history as a complete lunatic who spews woke diatribes on X - calling herself "someone with cis white mobility privilege" and other nonsense.
In response to journalist Chris Rufo pointing this out, Elon Musk replied that she's a "crazy racist!"
Maher also says that "America is addicted to white supremacy," which is the "real issue."
She also excused looters, and even slammed Hillary Clinton for correctly gendering individuals.
What's the answer? Donald Trump suggests defunding them.

Oh, NPR, NPR....
Given that Uri Berliner found himself so openly at odds with the old NPR regime, and the new regime was probably going to be even more rabid, I wondered if he was going to do a "Tucker Carlson/ Matt Taibbi" and jump off the train.
Well, he didn't jump, he's being pushed...

Instead Of Introspection, NPR Suspends Veteran Journalist Who Called Out Partisan Trainwreck

If he finds a good place to land, this could be the best thing that ever happened to him. Unfortunately for him, he doesn't have a reputation for hard hitting TRUTHFUL investigative journalism. The journalistic world doesn't have a place for soft semi- compliant liberals with a conscience.

Not that NPR means much to many people here, but IMHO since reality doesn't adhere to a narrative, if you're aiming to understand the world you will in all probability land on both sides of whatever narrative divde exists. That is, you will probably piss off people on both sides of whatever divide exists, especially in a polarized society where people have chosen sides and aren't thinking, they're primed to get angry.
I wonder if there's a place in today's society for reporters like that, or if respect for understanding is too long gone.

How is this going to help eradicate all the Jews that you are working so hard towards?

There's no money in it anymore, so it won't be done.
